About Featured
Baking isn't just about following a recipe, it is about fixing the mess when things do not go as planned. In my masterclass, we do not just decorate cakes, we build structures that actually hold. You will likely mess up during your first attempt, but that is exactly where the real learning happens. I will be right there with you to help you figure it out and fix it, because the one who wins after losing is the real hero.
What You Will Actually Learn
I do not believe in just showing pretty pictures. In my studio, we get our hands dirty.
- Gravity & Structure: Learn the engineering behind floating tiers, swing cakes, and topsy-turvy designs. We use real rods, nuts, and wooden bases so your cake is safe to transport.
- Signature 'Gullu' Modelling: Learn to sculpt my popular teddy bear figurines, including the fur texture and facial expressions that give them that cute factor.
- Sharp Edges & Smoothing: I will teach you the specific pressure and tools needed to get that sharp 90-degree finish on tall cakes using acrylic disks and metal scrapers.
- Climate-Proofing: Since we are in Delhi, I show you how to stabilize whipped cream for the heat and use Tylose/CMC for fondant so it does not sweat.
The Vibe
These are small, chill batches at my studio in Laxmi Nagar. No crowded halls, just us working together. Everything we make is 100% eggless, just like my own bakes. You bring your curiosity, and I provide the tools, the materials, and the lunch. Come ready to learn the real techniques behind the viral designs you see on my feed.
